By majoring in insurance and risk management, an MBA student may fuse general management education with a specialized expertise. This major enables the student to gain a thorough understanding of both risk management and insurance theory and practice. Students are exposed to the legal, actuarial, financial, and economic principles underlying corporate and public sector risk management, with specific applications to individual, business, and social problems. In addition, the functional areas of insurance company management, e.g., investment policy, financing, marketing, pricing, and underwriting, are explored in depth. Risk Management and Insurance theory, functions, and strategies are all investigated against a background of accelerating change in the legal, regulatory, and economic environment.
Career opportunities for MBA graduates with a major in insurance and risk management include positions in many types of consulting, risk management, employee benefits management, insurance company management, and personal financial planning. Risk management involves financial and statistical analysis of risk and insurance-related problems that confront businesses and public sector managers. Positions are available in risk management departments of large corporations, risk management consulting firms, insurance brokerage firms, and special risk divisions of insurance companies that deal with large corporate risks as well as government and nonprofit organizations around the world. The increasing importance of employee benefits in overall compensation management requires individuals with education in group insurance, pension plans, and deferred-compensation arrangements. Positions are available in corporate benefit departments, employee benefit consulting firms, and bank trust departments as well as social insurance agencies in the public sector. Insurance company management positions are available in general management, marketing, financial management, and research and planning; jobs in the regulatory sector are also available to our graduates. The growth in the number of firms providing personal financial planning has increased the demand for persons with education in the use of life insurance and related mechanisms in capital accumulation and estate conservation.
Additional opportunities for an MBA combining finance and insurance include positions in insurance company investment, pension fund management, and social insurance program design and oversight. Management consulting firms also seek candidates with expertise in insurance for positions involving insurance industry analysis, including insurance company formations and acquisitions. This demand can be expected to accelerate in view of the ongoing erosion of traditional regulatory barriers between commercial banking, insurance, and the securities industry.
